jurov`: i didn't knew it
pankkake: wasn't that known already, the flash thing?
pankkake: I've seen that, scary… pretty sure my server in a datacenter has ipmi, I don't know how filtered it is
mircea_popescu: yeah. i agree pankkake, i can't discern any point where this diverges from bitcoin differently than simple ignorance.
bloctoc: I don't want to load this channel up with alt coin discussions, but there are other functionalities that need to go p2p to take care of things like profitable mining companies that lose their centralized exchange.
mircea_popescu: but i fail to see the logic, if you don't like the bitcoin in bitcoin why not just sell them for fiat or rubber tyres or w./e that better suits your needs.
bloctoc: …and I can't seem to build trust to trade in bitcoin-otc I'm hoping that reversible transactions helps there too.
bloctoc: bitcoin community. I don't know what the alternatives are with colored coins, but I really like the idea of reversible transactions using mastercoin.

mircea_popescu: ppl can't code.
mircea_popescu: wasn't soft limit 500k ?
thestringpuller: I didn't know it was this bad
dexX7: this wouldn't have an impact on tslb i think
mircea_popescu: it doesn't pay nearly enough
mircea_popescu: too early to say that it's stupid, if it actually is. so far, we just don't know why anyone should care.
nubbins`: "Max you can't just say that"
pankkake: the stealth bomber looks better than the classic… but I don't even have a use for the first one :p
nubbins`: Dr Greg uses words that I don't understand
pankkake: yes the video is very good. can't find any flaw
firstblockchain: still, not as bad as Sulawesi, Indonesia. There, the person isn't considered "dead" until the cremation has happened. So, until they can save enough money for a proper cremation ceremony, the corpse stays in the house with the family. They dress it every day and sit it in a chair in the family room. And put it back in bed at night.
firstblockchain: The monkeys know you if you walk through all the time - don't harass you.
firstblockchain: dub - if the dog's head is facing you, but his eyes are blank and the tail ain't moving, back the funk up
unbalanced: nubbins, PM me your shop address and I'll send some your way, if you aren't washed away in the footage I saw on the Weather Network today
unbalanced: I envy your Tim Ferris lifestyle but now I don't have to envy your coffee.
firstblockchain: thestringpuller - if it needs cream or sugar, it ain't coffee
firstblockchain: unbalanced - lol - just got a notice from bitpay about the overpayment. They won't let me accept it without opening a support ticket first. It says you can also request a refund.
firstblockchain: Quite the extreme - say, all the Chinese fiat investors, startups concered only with Gov't regulations, etc.. I met at Bitcoin 2013 in Singapore a few weeks ago - and say, what's been going on HERE for apparently much,much longer
nubbins`: but i mean, i don't regret buying things with bitcoin just because the value has gone up
unbalanced: To which disaster do you refer? I can't remember that far back although I'm sure I read about it.
unbalanced: Well, they didn't go to 0 I guess.
thestringpuller: or an income stream generated by the economy, however there isn't much worth investing in, I feel Havelock will go the way of BTCTCO soon
thestringpuller: you don't it's hit or miss
thestringpuller: unbalanced: no you can't, because that's not a good utility for it, and never was
taub: deflation is fine, but obviously rapid one like this isn't really classic deflation
unbalanced: But you're right, they wouldn't have a defined payoff.
thestringpuller: unbalanced: how would that be an alternative to options? wouldn't that be more of a futures contract?
unbalanced: Hi Namworld (There he is, .ca I wasn't crazy.)
pankkake: I don't really like the color of krugerrands
nubbins`: i can't imagine why
pankkake: I usually don't call them but draw them in the air
unbalanced: I haven't reached out to him yet, I just read his stuff.
unbalanced: thought you might have missed a word there but didn't want to get all the profanities for pointing it out
nubbins`: haven't touched it in a while tho
unbalanced: Noobs are always telling me that if they can't buy their Tim's with Bitcoin, what's the point? I remind them that not every part of the world has PayPass and Interac and all the other conveniences we take for granted up here.
unbalanced: I think namworld was but haven't seen him in the logs lately.
mircea_popescu: "What the devil kind of knight are you, that can't slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil excretes, and your army eats. You will not, you son of a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we've no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother."
pankkake: lol, true… and actually I thought of forcing people to gpg that way… but indeed it won't work :(
nubbins`: i certainly don't need it anymore
pankkake: the only reason they don't kill us is because they're lazy and we feed them
davout: it is really cool, and the fact that the location is beautiful doesn"t hurt
davout: i don't think so
mircea_popescu: nubbins` contrary to what people think, three star restaurants aren't really THAT expensive.
davout: DON'T YOU FUCKING LOL AT MY FOOD
nubbins`: wouldn't mind checking out germany
davout: nubbins`: don't go to the louvre
nubbins`: it didn't get much longer than that
mircea_popescu: jurov` we're so filthy rich a 20% increase doesn't even register anymore.
ozbot: THE BEARDS - If Your Dad Doesn't Have a Beard, You've Got Two Mums (Official Film Clip) - YouTube
mircea_popescu: but they didn't really thrive for some reason.
firstblockchain: Is it a faux-pas if I'm the type of person who doesn't lurk, but just jumps in and tries shit to learn from the results / reactions?
mircea_popescu: they probably don't mention that part, either.
firstblockchain: when I (recently) discovered some of the other functions that can be accomplished with the blockchain - my mind was blown - and now I discover folks have already been doing it. You know, the guys at the bitcoin foundation don't mention this place when they give conferences....
mircea_popescu: but also because even if the person doesn't bet it will still be accused of having bet and ensured his own winning.
pankkake: yes… but that aren't things changed lightly
pankkake: oh and you can't use a regular yubi with them?
davout: pankkake: they flash their YKs so you can't use them anywhere else
davout: i don't really get that, is there any point to it besides marketing?
dexX7: depending on what you are looking at, no-updates can still be valuable updates ("we didn't run")
mircea_popescu: on her own dime, i ain't payin' for that shit!!11
betsson: anyway, doesn't matter
pankkake: truffles: that's pretty much the only purpose of it. stuff that won't be removed etc. the older french content was way more controversial btw. many threats received!
pankkake: approved. I have removed the external service antispam, hope I won't get flooded
mircea_popescu: if at firsty you don't succeed...
pankkake: truffles: wordpress doesn't have it… i guess i fucked my spam filtering too
taub: oh, it doesn't work without ssl
pankkake: you shouldn't have to
pankkake: it didn't make me MAD, but the positive reception it had made me MAD
pankkake: 4. you don't need transaction fees
pankkake: so wwf isn't wild women fucking
mircea_popescu: i think it doesn't look good.
pankkake: put it, just have some classes and people stop telling you it doesn't look good
pankkake: well, bootstrap is great for people who don't like CSS like me
mircea_popescu: yet they still won't jdice-invest like good doobies. i suppose that's boring.
mircea_popescu: it suddenly dawned on me what he means is similar to "the ps2 dioesn't even have a lot of cartridges!"
mircea_popescu: one of the funnier parts was the "mpex doesn't even have a lot of stocks!!1" thing.
pankkake: can't have a more cssy exchange than that
mircea_popescu: i can't even name a super villain
pankkake: but I don't get it
pankkake: but they don't even do 1% of that. like "how many bitcoins do you have left". not even telling
ozbot: James Collins Allegedly Called 911 Because Neighbors Wouldn't Drink With Him
pankkake: i don't know, he seems to love asicminer a bit too much
nubbins`: beef crashes against pumpkins every october, doesn't mean vegetarians are destroying meat eaters
BingoBoingo: Venat: It isn't too likely in the next few years, but mathematical advances can be hard to predict.
lewicki: if sha 256 breaks, can't the devs just rewind the blockchain, boot up the new algorithm and mush on?
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I find holding some LTC to be useful, just in case SHA-256 catastrophically breaks. I don't plan on ever having occasion to use LTC unless that happens though.
BingoBoingo: s3gfault: Well, if they never have reason to think you might withdraw they might eventually decide they don't actually need to keep those coins in your name. Best to test them.
nubbins`: kinda glad, he severely dropped the prices on a lot of his coins recently, which i didn't really agree with
BingoBoingo: s3gfault: Well, you don't want them running a fractional reserve scheme supported by the fact you don't care to withdraw and redeposit from time to time...
BingoBoingo: Well, BIPS was under a DDoS for a few days and their wallet was swiped during it, so even if this is a DDoS that isn't necessarily good news for s3gfault
bgupta: jeezus really.. noone here would dare trade on icbit, and don't want to hear about whining about lost btc to a fake exchange.
